Was about to say...

Makes me wonder how many medical schools have this issue and how adversely they affect our health. Maybe a more mixed group of residents can have some doctors learn more about the disparities.

I am upset for them, but the only one I can give for marginalizing black women was the swim caps - hair that can lay flat enough to make an ‘approved’ swim cap is some 1A-4A shit that can severely hamper - not every black/coily woman wants to shave their hair down or force their hair into tight braids or any of the…

Indeed - less about lazy characterization of Arabs in their treatment of women and more an indictment of how many don’t follow the OPEC connection after years and years of worse people doing worse shit.

I still remember when she started aiming for press as the “new millennial Republican” who liked gay people and were willing to listen and totally cried when her dad went with Palin as a VP pick. But that was early Obama era, where the tea leaves for the majority read “we need to be less -isty, in public if not in…

Quite sure Hulk time didn’t hurt Mark Ruffalo’s small movie/screen cred - Emmy win and all that. Sebastian Stan dissolves into roles, Gwenyth Paltrow forgets she’s in them, Anthony Mackie got Black Mirror, Altered Carbon, a few movies on top of Falcon/Captain America, Tessa Thompson keeps working it, Brie Lawson’s not…

Pretty much - hard to find a baby ugly

I don’t think that’s where he was going. Basically agreement with all you’re saying, but: when even what is nominally black media does little to highlight the moves of current black artists outside of the tight boxes the white musical establishment kept us in it feels jacked up that it takes white music nerds to…

The part of me that’s sad is soothed by remembering GoT... but also annoyed because I remember GoT: if based off book adaptations run out of source material one may end up with fan-serving crap.... but: it sucks to not give a hopefully diverse writing room a proper chance to appease or severely disappoint people. 

Sadly it’s getting to where I see Dave Grohl make press and go “please don’t be news that he’s a baby-raping murder nugget, please, oh please...” before I click and then go “whew!”. Even the one Foo Fighters rider I heard of was wholesome. Definitely gives off Tom Hanks/Mr. Rogers energy from the ‘90s alt-rock and…

I feel like their “core” (cough, white, cough) fans were not into Pop... sigh.

Funny choir director, sassy friend, kindly bachelor uncle that are allll magically asexual and not at all into PDA- fit the trope or fuck off is sadly a thing for even the most open-minded of us.

Also: they went all in and deeply so and therefore they need to either hope he succeeds or accept that they’ve fucked themselves for life and are only going to be good for sadness.

Fairness to Jared Padalecki - the premise isn’t strong enough to last long without totally fucking up continuity (actual, base, continuity that even the fan fic lovers are super into) and pissing the rabid base off. Would’ve been better to have gone in on some period television via the Campbells or Men of Letters, or…

Agreed. That said, it’s fun how -isms tend to stack and racism plus ableism is one of the most toxic combinations. And given the dated and shitty treatment from the prince’s family the kids are not going to be any better.

They didn’t want to be cut off from royal life. They wanted to be cut off from Royal Life(tm). If the staff was an ounce less dishy to the tabloids, if maybe there wasn’t Brexit and Prince Andrew and other shit going on in the UK that made their marriage and Meghan’s adjustment so damn good distracting TV/print…

May not be a thing on official records, but the internet is there and kids can really be cruel and inventive when they want to be

Remember when Trump had to be reminded of that one soldier killed who happened to be black? Pepperidge Farm remembers. They love the troops when they are white, male, straight, Christian, and (frankly) dead.

Which is always interesting - folks cry about the military budget, but it’s the most lopsided thing ever. And once you get pass the people portion it’s mostly shit they don’t want but makes the states with bases and depots and plants happy.

When you fund your mama, your daddy, your brother, your sister, your ex, your kids, their kids, etc. while they’re dumb enough not to make wealth growing moves (real estate and investments) you too would be lucky to fall out at $60 Million.
